I came here, liked and commented because Phu was crying about views in the video after this. I knew all of this info, but still watched.
I hope you appreciate this Phu.

Can you do the newer freecoaster for some reason my clutch can’t some out of the hub

[rafaelvallermrdth]

And where do I get those little ball spring things man ? My free coasters got that same problem

[adrianjabs]

[dustinrouse]

7:04 if you don’t like the slack of a traditional free coaster try a BSD revolution hub or a 90east hub or a alienation Venus hub 👍🚲💨

[SilentFOZ]

thank you for showing us the tear down

[jahmaulallen]

You’re absolutely amazing bro very informative. I love the video. I love how you teach us about a cassette and a free coaster and how you gave us an example in the beginning of the video 🚲but I have a cassette and I was I was riding I tried peddling, I thought my chain came off the back sprocket, but it wasn’t. It was fully on the back and the front but it wasn’t going nowhere and I lookedat my hub and it was all opened, and I am assuming some of the Ball bearings went missing so what do I do now?

Thank you just got into fixing bmxs this has helped a lot

[scottschiro]

I wanted to see if you guys can do a review on the Skapegoat/ 90 East freecoaster hub if that is possible.

[MorbidThrasher]

Nice, now do a cassette tear down and a freewheel tear down too 🤞

I've been on a khe style (Shadow)coaster for 10 yrs. It slips because the splines on the clutch wear down. I've only replaced 1clutch($30) ever. I dont have that ball spring in my hub because it didnt come with it that Phu mentions at 9:30. I had 2 homies who khe style coasters and would put pedal pressure to pivot out of fakies instead of half cab. They ruined their clutches because of that. They replaced em as I suggested and problem solved once again.

I was on cassette through high school now I’m a freecoaster guy I couldnt stand cassette but I love coasters even tho there harder build tho

[steves]

Can I get a link to where I can get that dope shirt?

[Wes-nm]

needle bearings have a bigger contact surface with the racers so they have a higher load capacity and thinner for space issues,

[lucianonotarfrancesco]

So, where do you get the replacement spring? Looks like very specific and probably hard to find an exact match in a hardware store…

[erickdelprado]

Another video please on the difference between a cassette hub and a free coaster. Thanks

In the 1970s there hubs where if you peddled back you would get rear brakes, I cant remember what the cranks would do if you went backwards, we didn't have BMX bikes we jumped our chopper bikes, I got a bmx bike when they came out and got tuffs when they came out, happy days, we went clean across the city on our BMX bikes, I got into motorbikes trucks trades mechanics building with all the material complexity, the BMX bikes were good reliable strong bikes, in retrospect I should have got more into BMX biking as a hobby

Taper bearings handle radial loads better vs needle. Needle bearings don't handle side loading. Taper bearing is the same style they have used for car and truck wheel aka hub bearings for years, although new cars today use sealed bearings
